Sanders: Trump should think about resigning over sexual misconduct allegations

[Vidal]

"Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) early Thursday said President Trump should think about resigning over the sexual misconduct allegations brought up against him during the 2016 presidential campaign.

"We have a president of the United States who acknowledged on a tape widely seen all over the country that he's assaulted women, so I would hope maybe the president of the United States might pay attention of what's going on and also think about resigning," Sanders said on "CBS This Morning," referring to the "Access Hollywood" tape that emerged last year.

The senator went on to emphasize the need for a cultural revolution to address sexual misconduct.

"What I worry about right now, as we speak, in restaurants and in offices all over this country where you have bosses who are not famous, there is harassment of women and women are being intimidated. We need a cultural revolution in this country," he said."

1. So...

Does he think Franken should definitely resign and Trump should "think" about it?

I'm confused.

[bettyellen]

7. Exactly my thoughts. Harsher and less fair to Dems- who'd have thunk it?

[greymattermom]

2. So calls for Trump to resign for his sexual misconduct

should be heard every day. Every Dem who goes on cable tv should say it every time. Repetition works, as Fox news knows so well.

8. heard every day

3. The Republican Party considers women second class citizens and objects. Good luck with that.

10. OK

But he is pretty old.

Can't we get somebody else to carry the torch after he retires?

[MrsCoffee]

16. Nope.

[treestar]

17. They will dig up dirt on Bernie

Hell, maybe he is next.

[rockfordfile]

24. No.

I voted for him in the primary last year. But not again. He burned that bridge with helping railroad Franken.
